Post-quantum cryptography has a strong impact on Entrust Datacard's main business areas: 
on SSL, PKI, as well as on the authentication business.

It has taken over two decades to establish and secure the current e-commerce applications. The security of most of these systems principally relies on cryptographic algorithms which have served the purpose till now. Since the initiation and evolution of quantum computing, some cryptographic algorithms have threats. To mitigate the security gap, numerous post-quantum algorithms have been proposed. This article enlightens the journey towards post-quantum algorithms and security parameters of the newly proposed post-quantum algorithms.

In this video blog, Madjid Nakhjiri, Senior Principal Security Architect at the Samsung Strategy and Innovation Center, describes his company’s strategy to develop products today which are prepared for the post quantum era.

With every passing day, the need for crypto agility becomes more and more important. Whether you believe quantum computing is 10 years, 20 years or more away, the inevitability is that it is approaching fast. In the world of cryptography, Key Management Systems (KMS) are already well down the path of developing technologies for a quantum world. However, the KMS is only one portion of a total cryptography solution. This is why many leading technology organizations have begun research on Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) and their role in crypto agility.

Quantum computing will decimate the security infrastructure of the digital economy. Quantum computing in general is certainly a blessing to humanity in many respects and it promises to disrupt evolution of technology in more than one dimensions. But it is also a curse to security, as cryptographic algorithms that proved to be secure for decade may be breached by quantum computers within minutes.
